About Virtual Trackball

Do you have a trackball but you prefer a d-pad for games? Do you have a device with no hardware controller at all?

This application emulates a trackball or a directional controller (d-pad), which is displayed on the screen. It's useful for those devices not having any of these "peripherals" or having one of them but the other is more suited for some applications.

★ Trackball and d-pad
★ Very customizable: opacity, size, position and color
★ Trackball sensivity is adjustable
★ Notification to hide and show it again quickly

IMPORTANT: Requires a "rooted" device.

Too bad. Cannot use at top left. Also disrupts keys, no b. OnePlus One CM12 nightly build.

Doesnt recognise any direction on either dpad or trackball

It's a hassle when I flash a ROM. Love how slick it is. I feel like I can't live without it, but I guess I'll have to since it's not working on JB.

Doesn't work even with the phone rooted stay away

Tried the new version, but it still didn't work with my phone. Waiting patiently for the fix.

Used to work ok but would kick me out of some apps when it shut down/restarted. Now won't work at all on moto Droid razr maxx. No response from dev.

I searched for this ona whim just to see if someone had already created it. It turns out, YES this dude already had; and its brilliant. Works fabulously on my HP TOUCHPAD running CM7 rev3.5. Since the touchpad has no trackball this is perfect! Kudos for a well done app that is very very useful. I use it most often when editing text. I find it especially powerfull when combined with SlideIt.

X70%
by X####:

It FCs when hiding the track all/dpad on 4.0.3, but other than that, this is great for VNC sessions and text editing, and just the right size.

J70%
by J####:

Works just fine for me. Haven't come across a bug yet. Relaunches itself as it says it does. Even when my phone is shutting down!

Works perfect on my device. Note is easy to root, check XDA for info

Works pretty good on my gnex. Force closes when I turn off but not a deal breaker.

It looks like your new patch fixed the problem for my device. Thank you very much for your support and this app.

I use screen reader software that requires directional control. I only have directional control when opening the keyboard (Samsung Epic 4G). This app allows me directional control without having to open the keyboard. It works great. Only recommendations: color change options & a bigger size (fat fingers). Elsewise this is a great app & offers some good options for placement, etc. So far works on all the screens I have tried it on.

Needs to disappear with a keyboard being brought on-screen Galaxy S

Works perfectly on my desire hd. I use it all the time for moving the cursor around text.

H70%
by H####:

Great app!!! The concept is great. Wish there would be more features coming up like changing the sensitivity of the trackball.

D70%
by D####:

Very helpful app. But would b very nice if dev could use long hold on 1 of the action buttons to move position around.character blocking annoying

S70%
by S####:

Awesome concept. Great flexibility. However, both dpad and trackball controls keep disappearing from my device. Have to keep turning them back on.

O70%
by O####:

World but because it "dies" can't really use...lower the oom value, should work right?

S70%
by S####:

Works very well. Could you please allow to long click drag around the screen? Also be amazing if you could map show and hide to a long hardware key pr

Trackball unresponsive, as is dpad. No refunds. Sh!t sandwich.

by S####:

Sorry dev, found this doing a search & got excited & downloaded before reading full desc....im not rooted

S70%
by S####:

Would like it so it could be made even larger - a bit small on Dell Streak. Would also like u/d/l/r buttons that could be individually positioned.

L70%
by L####:

Really cool! Would like the option to drag it around on the screen because sometimes it's in the way of something (like a key on the kb).

H70%
by H####:

Nice but waste of $ 4 me. Need to navigate online spreadsheet's hidden fields (cause mobile) Developer see if you can fix please... DroidX 2.2 rooted

W70%
by W####:

Could have a few more options, but is a good option if you use the landscape keyboard on any phone lacking a real keyboard. God sent for the Droid X.

Working

D70%
by D####:

Used Titanium Backup to auto-fix the su binary problem (incomplete permissions or somesuch) which allowed the controller to start on the latest version of Virtual Trackball. Works a dream now. It wasn't the app's problem, it was a problem with root.

by S####:

Works perfectly droid x, however it is incredibly annoying when you don't need it. Needs a disable function
